Very Computer

I get frequently "data missing type reload" messages from netscape.
No I am not a developer, I am just a slow internet user and I don't
want to wait for what I already got a few minutes ago.

My second problem is when I click on the Back icon of Netscape it takes
too long to reload the page, it gets from internet again !!
I installed squid but it didn't help.
I can't believe Internet explorer doesn't have those problems but
Netscape...
I use linux RH5, Netscape 4.7 , squid 2.4
thanks for info

1. change how often NS check fo r newer versions.
edit/preferences/advanced/cache/
set document is compared to cache to once per session.

2. if you are submitting forms or going back to a site that placed a
cookie, sometimes the cookie expires or the data is missing from a
form that you entered, thus the data missing error.
just start back at the beginning of that page.  

also in secure web sites, sometimes you cannot go back, you can only
go forward or start over.

|Hmm, Indeed I had linked cookies file to /dev/null . But why NS cache or
|squid doesn't keep and retrieve the page ? any other solution?

most of the web sites that use cookies only keep the cookie for x
seconds or minutes.  if you exceed x (time value), the cookie is gone.
you could try setting the NS settings to persistently cache SSL
Documents.  (Forgive me, I've forgotten exactly where that is at the
moment..)  

I know to use the Dept. of Education online FA application, you have
to make adjustments to your browser regarding this setting.
